Ethno Solutions is a contract formulation
laboratory for the cosmetic and personal
care market. We help salon and spa owners
who may be interested in creating
their own product line by developing the
actual formulas, as well as helping set up
everything associated with the products.
Why we're different: With Ethno
Solutions, you are not renting or leasing
formulas. Instead we create them and you own
them from the start. We will help you negotiate
with every vendor associated with your new
line, from packaging to manufacturing.
How we work: We can set up face-to-face meetings, telephone conferences
or communicate via email to discuss your
potential interest. We forward you a product
development request form to fill out with your
product desires. We set up another meeting
to discuss project feasibility, time-frame and
development cost. Upon your approval, we
move ahead at your recommended pace.
Our services include: hair/skin care
formulations; re-formulations and formula
duplications; new product ideas and
recommendations; formulation cost-savings
plans; R&D profit growth strategies; formulation
grid strategies; coordination of small sample
runs up to 3,000 bottles; cost savings and
improvements to existing lines; hair swatch
studies; salon studies and workshops;
packaging, stability and compatibility studies;
sub-contractor negotiations; solutions to
manufacturing problems; industrial scale-up
recommendations; marketing claims ingredients
support services; claims substantiation studies;
technical outsourcing services; and cosmetic
documents preparation services.
Catch us at: Presentations upon request at
your place or our place.
Our advice: "Make sure you understand the
actual mechanism of every single step before,
during and after the process. Your formula
should be unique, like your own DNA."
